BFD! Obama made out like a bandit on that one. Just as he anticipated when he broke the laws. The “fine” should have actually hurt him.

So Trump’s campaign may have failed to disclose a $100,000 load, that was ultimately paid off by Trump himself, not the campaign.

but...but...but...no court trials...years later...I mean for God’s sake his name was not even obama and everyone in congress knows he’s a fraud...but it is a secret!!! BS come on!! There is Justice and then there is [Justice}....two different systems....and Trump will be gone before the real criminals are ever exposed because of sh*t proceedings and announcements like today!
No one in the coup d’é·tat is going to have anything happen to them I am sorry to say and no one on their right is going to do squat about it except take more sh*t from govt and dimmos and big tech and censoring and even antifia...sorry pessimistic....yes and pissed off about all of it too!!!
